Bitcoin has entered March after one of the most structurally severe corrections in its history, recording five consecutive monthly red closes for only the second time ever and marking a 52 percent drawdown from the October 2025 peak. The January–February “double-red” start to 2026 also stands in stark contrast to historical seasonality with the final weekend’s geopolitical shock triggering a sharp liquidation cascade and reinforcing the fragility of risk sentiment. Yet despite the intensity of the sell-off, the $60,000–$62,000 region has held firm, suggesting that forced selling is transitioning into a phase of absorption rather than renewed capitulation.
